Mike,
My SU workshop manual for HD cabs shows: lowering the jet 2.5 turns. It als=
o reminds you to first center the jet. Also, it recommends the slow-running=
 valve be unscrewed 3.5 turns for the initial run-up to temperature.
I just redid my set of HD6 on my BN7 and these settings worked first time.
